I do have to laugh at some of you on here thinking its like a supermarket dash in the last few days of a transfer window, just I's and T's to be done at this stage, we have been working on deals for a number of weeks. If transfers were so straight forward, especially in this cash rich mad window, then ask yourselves why Chelsea, Pool , Arsenal etc are having trouble getting deals over the line.
Speaking (obviously) just for myself, by all means laugh at me but as I have no inside knowledge of transfer dealings all I can go on is what I've seen in the past.

Such as Spurs putting up Martin Petrov and his agent in a hotel for two days to finalise the deal. He went to City. Damien Duff actually being announced as our player in the press. Chavs. Similarly, posters on here being told "Relax, he's ours" about Wayne Bridge. Chavs again. And I hardly need mention Willian, but I will as the manager who got him is now supposedly interested in Aurier.

Again, thanks for all your information and here's hoping you have the last laugh!

Aurier looking close now permit been approved. What a touch. Probably only one who ain't a downgrade on walker. Probably one of the most needed signings. Lets hope for some more now. All itk looking optimistic still. F5 heaven

Exactly. These are transfers between big football clubs, very similar to drug deals where the money is paid up front in briefcases, and to ransoms whereby the money is paid and the player released from chains.
Fixed your post, mate! (y)

I don't mean to slight you, because your posts over the last few weeks have been excellent, but i have wondered whether English is your first language? I'm just worried for your safety if Levy can identify ITK leakers. I don't want you to succumb to his Ninja's haha.
What's a "Ninja's haha"? Sounds kinky!
